A Gem of the Bronze Age, Cowtown Comics was a team up book featuring Cow Puncher, an invulnerable brawler, teaming up each month with another hero. Frequent partners included the Kansas City Rattlesnake, Jet Star, The Jade Jack, and Rumble Bee.

The stories were modern takes on western themes featuring our heroes protecting small towns, car thieves as cattle rustlers and of course, showdowns at high noon.

Cowtown Comics ran in this format for 94 issues before being re-titled as Cow Puncher & the New West Heroes, a team book featuring Cow Puncher leading a group of young upstarts including The Sketch, Diamondback, Kid Cryo, and Jackalope.

About Brain Teaser Comics

Brain Teaser is that nervous laugh when a friend trips and falls...into the gaping maw of a man-eating plant. Brain Teaser is the moment right before your mother-in-law insults a dark wizard. Brain Teaser is the day the Earth stood Still, while the rest of the Universe dances. Brain Teaser takes no prisoners, because it's the one in the padded cell.
